4.6.2 Port Forwarding

Using the Port Forwarding page, you can provide local services (for example web hosting) for people on the Internet or play Internet games. When users send this type of request to your network via the Internet, the ADSL router will forward thos e requests to the appropriate computer. Port forwarding can be used with DHCP assigned addresses but remember that a DHCP address is dynamic not static. For example, if you were configuring a NetMeeting server, you would want to assign this server a static IP address so that the IP address is not reassigned. Also remember that if an Internet user is trying to access an Internet application, they must use the WAN IP address. The port forwarding will translate the WAN IP address into a LAN IP address.

To configure a service, game or other application, select the external connection (for example the Internet connection) from the Home page, click Advanced and under Advanced, select Port Forwarding. Next, select the computer hosting the service and add the corresponding firewall rule. If you want to add a custom application, select the User category, click New and fill in the port, protocols and description for your application.
